What is symmetry? Are there different types of symmetry? Can you name some items that are symmetrical?
View "Line Symmetry" at LINKS Learning for Kids to learn about line symmetry. You will watch several video clips and complete the activities after each clip.
View the "Rotational Symmetry" video. Be sure to note the difference in line and rotational symmetry. Several examples are provided.
Once you've viewed both presentations, you may click on one of the following activity links.
